Description

Field of the Invention

The disclosure relates to the technical field of motors, in particular to a rotor structure, a motor and a compressor.

Background of the Invention

A permanent magnet motor drives loads under the action of electromagnetic induction of the magnetic field between a stator and a rotor. With rapid development of power electronics technology, microelectronics technology, new motor control theory and rare earth permanent magnet materials, the permanent magnet motor is rapidly popularized and applied. The motor mainly includes a stator and a rotor structure arranged in an inner hole of the stator. The stator is electrified externally, and the rotor rotates continuously under the action of the magnetic field generated by the stator.
In the operating process of the motor, as the iron loss of the motor results in redundant heat, accumulation of this part of heat will finally lead to damage to insulating components in the motor. To ensure normal operation of the motor, in Chinese patent document CN203730322U , a plurality of circulation holes axially passing through a rotor are formed on the rotor, which facilitate increasing the circulation area of refrigerant inside a housing and reducing the circulation resistance of refrigerant inside the compressor, so as to improve the whole circulation efficiency of the refrigerant and facilitate improving the refrigerating efficiency of an air conditioner. However, openings will influence the motor, for another example, in Chinese patent document CN204497872U , a plurality of air circulation holes are formed on the periphery of the inner hole of the rotor core so as to dissipate heat of the motor.
However, in some cases, the formed shaft hole of the rotor needs to be relatively large, or a plurality of magnets and the like need to be arranged, so that the opening space on the rotor core is limited. In such a limited space, no circulation hole could ensure the torque between the rotor and a rotary shaft, but will result in low whole circulation efficiency of refrigerant and oil of the compressor and low dissipated heat of the core of the motor. If the circulation holes are provided, the whole circulation efficiency of the refrigerant and oil of the compressor could be ensured, but the torque between a rotor and a rotary shaft is influenced to affect the operating performance of the motor.
JP2006077634A discloses a compressor, which is what formed the throughhole along which the lubricating oil pumped up by the rotor with which the permanent magnet was embedded passes, and it has the effect which prevents abrasion by raising the efficiency of an electric-drive element with improving the cooling property of a rotor, and adsorbing sucking a metal powder etc. to a rotor.
US 2015/0137632A1 discloses a rotor, including a hollow cylindrical rotor core that has a center hole, in which a rotating shaft is to be press-fitted, and a plurality of magnet-receiving holes in which a plurality of permanent magnets are respectively received. In a radially inner surface of the rotor core defining the center hole, there are formed a plurality of non-contacting recesses and a plurality of contacting protrusions alternately in the circumferential direction of the rotor core. Each of the non-contacting recesses is recessed radially outward so as not to be in contact with the rotating shaft. Each of the contacting protrusions protrudes radially inward so as to be in pressed contact with the rotating shaft. The rotor core further has a plurality of through-holes each of which penetrates the rotor core in the axial direction of the rotor core and is located radially outside a corresponding one of the contacting protrusions.
US20110298319A1 discloses an electric machine module including a housing defining a machine cavity. In some embodiments, an electric machine can be positioned within the machine cavity and include a rotor hub coupled to rotor laminations. The rotor hub can include first and second axial ends and the rotor laminations can include a recess. In some embodiments, the recesses can be aligned to define a portion of a plurality of coolant channels that can be in fluid communication with the machine cavity. In some embodiments, the rotor hub can include first and second rotor hub inlets in fluid communication with at least a portion of the coolant channels. The first and the second rotor hub inlets can be adjacent to the axial ends of the rotor hub. In some embodiments, the coolant channels are in fluid communication with the rotor hub inlets are not the same coolant channels.
US 20150137650A1 discloses a rotor including a rotor core that has magnet-receiving holes in each of which is received a corresponding permanent magnet. The rotor core also has, for each of the magnet-receiving holes, first and second supporting portions. The first supporting portion supports a radially inner end portion of a first magnetic flux barrier-side face of the corresponding permanent magnet. The second supporting portion supports a radially outer end portion of a second magnetic flux barrier-side face of the corresponding permanent magnet. A second magnetic flux barrier-side end portion of a radially outer wall surface of the magnet-receiving hole is planar in shape and parallel to a radially outer side face of the corresponding permanent magnet. A second magnetic flux barrier-side end portion ofa radially inner wall surface of the magnet-receiving hole is planar in shape and parallel to a radially inner side face of the corresponding permanent magnet.

Embodiment 1

This embodiment provides a rotor structure, including a rotor core 1, a magnets 2 and a limit component.
As shown in Fig. 1, a shaft hole 11 fixedly connected to a rotary shaft 5 and six magnet receiving grooves 12 are formed on the rotor core 1 along a rotation axis of the rotor core 1, the magnet receiving grooves 12 are V-shaped grooves, the six V-shaped grooves are symmetrically distributed around a periphery of the shaft hole 11 in the rotor core 1, the opening of each V-shaped groove faces a side away from the shaft hole 11, and the bottom of the V-shaped groove close to the shaft hole 11 is a linear portion. Two magnets 2 with the same polarity and symmetrically distributed are arranged in each V-shaped groove, that is, two magnets 2 with the same polarity are respectively installed on two inclined portions of the V -shaped groove, the magnets 2 in the two adjacent magnet receiving grooves 12 have opposite polarities, for example, the S pole of the magnet 2 in one magnet receiving groove 12 faces the stator and the N pole thereof faces the shaft hole 11, while the N pole of the magnet 2 in an adjacent magnet receiving groove 12 faces the stator and the S pole thereof faces the shaft hole 11.
As shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 5, six first through grooves 4 extending axially and depressed radially are formed around the inner surface of the shaft hole 11 on the rotor core 1, six bosses 51 corresponding to the first through groove 4 on a one-to-one basis are formed on the outer surface of the periphery of the rotary shaft 5 in a protruding manner, the six bosses 51 are respectively tightly inserted at the opening of one first through groove 4 by interference fit, for example, so that the rotary shaft 5 is fixedly connected with the rotor core 1. Moreover, the first circulation holes are enclosed between the first through grooves 4 and their corresponding bosses 51. Preferably, the shape of the transverse section of the first circulation hole is a rectangle.
Moreover, six second circulation holes 3 are symmetrically arranged at positions on the rotor core 1 between the outer edge of the rotor core 1 and the magnet receiving grooves 12, and the second circulation hole 3 extending along the axial direction of the rotor core 1 and are radially distributed on the center line of the magnetic pole of the rotor. Preferably, the shape of the transverse section of the second circulation hole 3 is a trapezoid of which the short edge faces the stator and the long edge faces the shaft hole 11. The size of the second circulation holes 3 meets the following conditions: $\begin{matrix} 2 * δ ⩽ m ⩽ 4 * δ, & 8 * δ ⩽ n ⩽ 14 * δ, & 2 * δ ⩽ L ⩽ 4 * δ; \end{matrix}$
in which δ is the width of an air gap between the stator and the rotor (the rotor is arranged in the inner hole of the stator); as shown in Figs. 2 and 3, m is a first distance between the outer edge of the second circulation hole 3 and the outer edge of the rotor core 1 along the radial direction of the rotor core 1; n is a second distance between the inner edge of the second circulation hole 3 and the bottom of the edge of the side of the magnet receiving grooves 12 away from the shaft hole 11 along the radial direction of the rotor core 1; and L is the minimum width of the second circulation hole 3.
As shown in Figs. 4 and 2, the limit component includes two baffles 6 and three projections 121, the two baffles 6 are respectively installed on two ends of the rotor core 1, and each baffle 6 is provided with a third communication hole 61, a second through groove 62 and a center hole 63 respectively corresponding to the second circulation hole 3, the first through groove 4 and the shaft hole 11 on a one-to-one basis; and the rotary shaft 5 passes through the shaft hole 11and the center hole 63 so as to be fixed on the rotor core 1. The three projections 121 are respectively formed on the inner surface of the linear portion and the inner surface at the ends of the opening of the V-shaped groove, an installation space for installation of one magnet 2 is formed between two adjacent projections 121, the projections 121 limit the radial position of the magnets 2, the baffles 6 limit the magnets 2 in a limit space formed by the magnet receiving grooves 12 and the two baffles 6 so as to limit the axial positions of the magnets 2, so that the magnets 2 are in a stationary state at positions in the magnet receiving grooves 12 to prevent displacement vibration of the magnets 2 during operation of the motor and ensure the reliability of the operation of the motor.
In the rotor structure in this embodiment, the first through grooves 4 extending axially and depressed radially are formed on the inner surface of the shaft hole 11 of the rotor core 1; no matter whether the rotor core 1 is provided with an opening space thereon, when six bosses 51 on the outer surface of the rotary shaft 5 are correspondingly in interference fit at openings of the first through grooves 4 on a one-to-one basis, first circulation holes are always enclosed between the first through grooves 4 and the bosses of the rotary shaft 5. Compared with the prior art, the first circulation holes are formed on the shaft hole 11 of the rotor core 1 to serve as a part of the shaft hole 11 of the rotor core 1, and no first circulation hole needs to be formed on the rotor core 1 as in the prior art, thereby increasing the circulation area of the rotor, accelerating the whole circulation efficiency of the refrigerant and oil, and facilitating the heat dissipation of the motor and the rotary shaft 5. Meanwhile, interference fit between the rotary shaft 5 and the first through grooves 4 ensures that in the case that the contact area of the rotary shaft 5 and the inner surface of the shaft hole 11 is reduced, the shaft hole 11 of the rotor core 1 and the rotary shaft 5 have sufficient clasp force and tangent torque therebetween, so that the rotor and the rotary shaft 5 would not be loosened, the torque between the rotor and the rotary shaft 5 would be ensured, and thus the circulation area of the rotor will be increased while the operating performance of the motor is not be affected.
Moreover, the second circulation holes 3 are formed on the rotor core 1 to further increase the circulation area of the rotor, reduce the temperature rise of the rotor core 1 and further improve the whole circulation efficiency of the refrigerant and oil. In addition, the second circulation holes 3 are located on the center line of the magnetic pole of the rotor. When the size of the second circulation holes 3 meets the above conditions, the second circulation holes 3 changes the direction of the magnetic field on the rotor core 1, as shown in Figs. 6 and 7. Fig. 6 shows the direction of the magnetic field of the rotor in that case that no second circulation hole 3 is formed on the rotor core 1, and Fig. 7 shows the direction of the magnetic field of the rotor in the case that the six second circulation holes 3 are formed on the rotor core 1. As can be seen from the figures, the arrangement of the second circulation holes 3 changes the direction of the magnetic field of the rotor to change the cogging effect of the stator, thereby reducing the tangential ripple of the rotor, reducing the torque ripple of the motor, and reducing the noise generated during the operation of the motor. As shown in Fig. 8, the curve A in the figure shows the torque ripple of the motor in the case that no second circulation hole 3 is formed on the rotor core 1, and the curve B shows the torque ripple of the motor in the case that six second circulation holes 3 are formed on the rotor core 1. It can be seen from the figure that in the case that the second circulation holes 3 are formed, the torque ripple of the motor is reduced by more than half, so that the torque ripple of the motor is considerably reduced, and the noise resulted from vibration during the operation of the motor is considerably reduced to form the motor and the compressor in low noise.
It should be noted that the size of the second circulation holes 3 must meet the above conditions. If the size of the second circulation holes 3 does not fall within the above range, for example, if the size of the second circulation holes 3 is too large, the direction of the magnetic field of the rotor is changed too large, the magnetic density of the air gap will be reduced, the direction of the magnetic field will be offset to be out of the effective range of the magnetic field, and the output of the motor will be lowered, and the performance of the motor will be degraded. If the size of the second circulation hole 3 is too small, the direction of the magnetic field of the rotor cannot be considerably changed, the torque ripple of the motor will be not significantly reduced, the noise reduction effect cannot be obtained, and the circulation area of the rotor cannot be further increased.
As an alternative embodiment, in addition to the rectangle above, the shape of the transverse section of the first circulation hole may be a trapezoid or other shape.
As an alternative embodiment, in addition to the V-shaped groove above, the magnet receiving groove 12 may be a groove of other shapes, such as a U shape; two magnets 2 with the same polarities are arranged in the U-shaped groove, projections 121 are formed on the inner surface of the U-shaped magnet receiving groove 12 to radially limit the positions of the magnets 2; or the groove may be a magnet receiving groove 12 of other shapes.
As an alternative embodiment of the number of the projections 121, the number of projection121 may also be four, five, six, seven and the like, as long as an installation space for installation of one magnet 2 can be formed between at least two projections 121 along the radial direction of the rotor core 1, and the projections 121 limit the radial positions of the magnets 2 in the magnet receiving grooves 12. It depends on the practical use condition as for how many projections 121 are specifically designed to limit the two ends of one magnet 2.
In the above embodiment, two magnets 2 with the same polarity and symmetrically distributed are arranged in each of the magnet receiving grooves 12. Since the magnets 2 in each of the magnet receiving grooves 12 have the same polarity, they are equivalent to one magnet 2. As an alternative embodiment, one magnet 2 can be arranged in each magnet receiving groove 12 whose shape conforms to that of the magnet 2, and the magnets 2 in the adjacent two magnet receiving grooves 12 have opposite polarities, that is, the magnets 2 are correspondingly installed in magnet receiving grooves 12 on a one-to-one basis.
As an alternative embodiment of the number of first through grooves 4, the number of first through grooves 4 may also be an even number, such as two, four, eight, ten, etc., and an even number of first through grooves 4 are symmetrically distributed on the inner surface of the shaft hole 11 of the rotor core 1. That is, the number of first through grooves 4 is at least two and an even number. Correspondingly, the number of the bosses 51 of the rotary shaft 5 is also at least two and an even number. Similarly, as an alternative embodiment of the numbers of the magnet receiving grooves 12 and the magnets 2, the number of magnet receiving grooves 12 may also be an even number, such as two, four, eight, ten, etc., and an even number of magnet receiving grooves 12 are symmetrically distributed on the rotor core 1. Correspondingly, the number of the magnets 2 is an even number, such as two, four, eight, ten, etc. However, when six second circulation holes 3 are formed on the rotor core 1, the number of the magnet receiving grooves 12 is correspondingly six, and only when each of the six magnet receiving grooves 12 respectively correspond to one second circulation hole 3, reduction of the torque ripple of the motor and the noise of the motor can be realized.
As an alternative embodiment of the limit component, the limit component may also include only two baffles 6, and the magnets 2 are inserted and fixed in the magnet receiving grooves 12, and no projections 121 is arranged to limit the radial direction of the magnets 2 in the magnet receiving grooves 12. Alternatively, other limit structures in the prior art are applied, and then only the magnets 2 need to be limited in the magnet receiving grooves 12. As a further alternative embodiment, the limit component may also not be formed, and then only the magnets 2 need to be fixed in the magnet receiving grooves 12. For example, the magnets 2 are bonded in the magnet receiving grooves 12, or other fixing methods in prior art may be applied, and then only the magnets 2 need to be in the magnet receiving grooves 12.
As a preferred embodiment of the size of the second circulation hole 3, for example, the air gap width δ is 0.3 mm, then the size of the corresponding second circulation hole 3 is in the following range: 0.6 mm ≤ m ≤ 1.2 mm, 2.4 mm ≤ n ≤ 4.2 mm, 0. 6 ≤ L ≤ 1.2 mm. For example, m is 0.8mm, n is 3mm, L is 0.9mm; or m is 0.6mm, n is 2.4mm, L is 0.6mm; or m is 1.2mm, n is 4.2mm, L is 1.2mm; or m is 1mm, n is 3. 6mm, L is 0.75mm; or the like.
